BEGET FALL IN LOVE WITH

With its bridge, sturdy stone houses and wooden balconies, the tiny village of Beget, with only 20 inhabitants, has the eternal air of a nativity scene. As a result of its geographical isolation, Beget is one of those villages which, even in the 21 st century, has managed to retain its authenticity and all of its rural charm. Although there are two Romanesque bridges, the first thing that will catch your eye is the slender, four-storey Lombard bell tower of the Sant Cristòfol church, the most visible architectural structure in the whole area. Once in the church, you will find some very interesting carvings and a variety of Baroque and Gothic altarpieces. It has belonged to the Camprodon municipality since the mid- 20 th century and both places, along with the villages in neighbouring valleys, are picture-postcard pretty. tradition and nature in the Pyreneanfoothills
